Being a Star Trek geek, I wanted a Saavik signed photo
from Kirstie Alley instead of a Cheers photo.

She was warm and engaging. The mom in front of me had a
couple of young ones with her. Kirstie made an effort to chat with the kids. The
kids, after talking nonstop for 5 minutes while in line, clammed up and were mute.
Kirstie took that in stride and laughed.

When I asked if she would add the character name, I admitted
I didn’t remember how it was spelled. She told me she had that ‘under control’
and quickly added the name. I think we both laughed.

About Me

Autograph Hound

Frisco, Texas, United States

The name says it all. I’m an autograph hound. Maybe not an elite bloodhound like the guys that spend 10 hours a night outside of restaurants and night clubs getting A-listers but a hound none the less.

Think of me like the old overweight bulldog that drools and slobbers but still can get into the hunt now and then; who pulls down less notorious signatures.

I have gotten signatures of some very neat people.

Sometimes the process is as simple as a smile and signature.

Sometimes a few words are exchanged. And sometimes you get a few sentences or a real conversation.

Now and then the experience is quick but very meaningful and telling. Other times it’s expanded and a whirlwind and it takes a few minutes to realize what happened.
